The Company was incorporated in 1964 as a public company listed on all the Stock Exchanges of Pakistan for setting up of a plant for manufacture of white sugar, in the province of Punjab. The plant went into production in 1966 with a daily crushing capacity of 1,500 TCD of sugar cane, a capacity that was increased to 4,000 TCD in 2002 and later expanded to 12,000 TCD in 2006 after further extensions. In the fiscal year 2022-23 our crushing capacity was regularized to 19,000 TCD, with the ongoing in-house plant modernizations we aim to reach this crushing capacity in coming years, Inshallah.
An Ethanol Distillery Division of French origin was established in 1986 with a production capacity of 50,000 litres/day of industrial-grade ethanol. In 2002, another facility, incorporating Brazilian-based technology, was added, boasting a production capacity of 30,000 litres/day of industrial-grade ethanol. Subsequently, in 2005, a new fuel-grade ethanol plant with a capacity of 100,000 litres/day, based on Molecular Sieve technology was added. To further enhance our production, a new plant with a capacity of 50,000 liters/day was added in 2017-18. This expansion significantly increased our rectified production capacity from 80,000 liters to 130,000 liters per day.
An Effluent Treatment Plant, employing Canadian UEM Bio-Gas digesters technology, has been operational since 1997. This facility utilizes bio-degradable wastewater as a renewable source of energy, replacing 70% of fuel oil/natural gas for the generation of process steam and electricity. This initiative underscores the company’s commitment to fulfilling its environmental obligations and reducing our environmental footprint.
